So Thankful

Our 6th Graders engaged in a mindfulness activity with Ms. Cresta

We have many reasons to be thankful here at Swampscott Middle School.  We want to express our gratitude for our dedicated and hardworking staff members who show up every single day willing to do whatever it takes to provide our students with incredible learning experiences.  Special thanks to our students who come to school each day with curious minds, strong work ethics, and kind hearts.
